Discourses Concerning Government por Algernon Sidney
A basic text by the seventeenth century republican theorist.
... you ask my opinion on the subject of publishing the works of Algernon Sidney. The world has so long and so generally sounded the praises of his Discourses on government, that it seems superfluous, for an individual to add his feeble breath to the gale. They are in truth a rich treasure of republican principles, supported by copious & cogent arguments, and adorned with the finest flowers of science. It is probably the best elementary book of the principles of government, as founded in natural right which has ever been published in any language: and it is much to be desired in such a government as our that it should be put into the hands of our youth as soon as their minds are sufficiently matured for that branch of study... (TJ to Mason Locke Weems, 13 December 1804)
